  • This record is for the largest two-dimensional artwork formed using the memory on a Global Positioning System device.
  • This record is to be attempted by a team up to 12 people, who may each drive an individual car.
  • This record is measured in kilometres (km) to the nearest 0.001 km, with the equivalent imperial measurement given in miles (mi).
  • For the purposes of this record, GPS Drawing combines art, travelling and technology, and is a method of drawing that uses GPS to create large-scale artwork. Global Positioning System receivers determine one's position on the surface of the Earth by trilateration of microwave signals from satellites orbiting at an altitude of 20,200 km. Tracks of a journey can automatically be recorded into the GPS receiver's memory and can subsequently be downloaded onto a computer as a basis for drawing, sculpture or animation.
  • Applicants who wish to cycle only may apply for a separate title: Largest GPS drawing by cycle (team).
